Hollywood Studios Update: Theater Spires Return (PART 2)
Welcome to the second part of our latest Disney's Hollywood Studios photo-report, OTPN Readers. We encourage you to check PART 1 before proceeding. In the previous part of this update, we took a look around the entrance of the park, the Center Stage, the beautiful Chinese Theater, Pixar Place, and more.
Let's now continue to walk around the park, as there are still a few other news to report, including an update on the construction of the new flex theater.

ReplyDeleteWhat is a "Flex" Theatre ? This will be what per se?
ReplyDeleteIt will be a special event only theater most likely. So they can begin to tear down the other theaters that did special events.
DeleteWill the new color scheme on the future theater being built be the color scheme for the other "Sound Stage" buildings around the park? I hope so cause I like those colors over the current beige color.
ReplyDeleteFlex theater doesn't have a permanent or 'locked in' configuration. There are places now where all the seating, stages, etc can be reconfigured without reconstruction. Some have seating for example that rises, lowers, entire rows can be taken below to increase space. The lighting and other stage infrastructure is more, well, flexible as to its configuration as well. I have no idea as to the extent of Disneys plans, but in general the concept is easy reconfiguration for a variety of uses.
ReplyDeleteRegarding my comment from Part 1 of this update, perhaps the new "flex theater" will eliminate the need for the temporary theater that blocks the view of the Chinese Theater as you walk up Hollywood Blvd?
ReplyDeleteGood call Jason. Would give them much more to work with - lighting etc - as well.
